Myy well be the first of many. I don't think there could be the slightest doubt about that. Well done, Brentford.

We shouldn't be too hasty - it's the only time the team show any coordination.

I find it interesting though that taking the knee has actually had an adverse effect. Since this started it has stoked feelings which had been pretty much laid dormant. Get rid of it. It’s setting back race relations, not improving them. "It feels much better than it ever did, much more sensitive." John Wayne Bobbit

Originally posted by JRW2 I don't think there could be the slightest doubt about that. Well done, Brentford. I find it a bit confusing with it being Brentford, of all teams. Are they or are they not now the Bees Knees? Living down here does have some advantages. At least you can see them cry.

Basically wilf has put his head up above the parapet for a reason. Hes black and saying what white people havent been allowed to say. Kneeling is historical and subjects did It to their masters. Degrading in a way. What he said was why should he kneel to show hes equal. Damn right blacks are equal as colour is skin deep only. I've said before attitude is bone deep, and as I remember tom saying and me repeating. A dick is a dick whichever colour,religeon,sex,belief you are.

Edited by cryrst (15 Feb 2021 6.08pm) He meant that kneeling is an empty jesture. Especially when he is racially abused on social media and nothing is done about it. "Why should I have to kneel for people to think that my life matters?" He also didn't agree with companies and organisations who asked him to be their voice or spokesperson on the subject of race when they don't actually care and are using his name for lip service.

So what I wrote basically. The reference to whites was purely because of reactions by black people to questioning the reason behind kneeling. Something you have done yourself. I didnt mean he took it upon himself to help whites get an opinion out there which may offend wokes.
